In 2017, Mr. Briginshaw tackled the humor genre with the release of a romantic comedy novella titled "Women 101: A Father's Humorous Guide To His Son". The book has also been adapted into a stage play.

In 2020, Mr. Briginshaw released two novellas. "Choices" is a story about an older man who re-lives the choices he has made in his life while attending the 50th anniversary of his university graduating class. "Life-Changing Events" is a story about Frank Taylor and Katy Sanchez, who shared one of these events many years ago when Frank was a hard-working, middle-aged plumber and Katy was a troubled, eleven-year-old school girl. Both of them have been dealing with the fallout ever since.

In 2022, Mr. Briginshaw released "The Journey", a story about Ryan Beam, an astronaut candidate hoping to be one of the crew members selected for a future mission to Mars. Ryan's parents and girlfriend want to support him in his quest, but are facing their own challenges in getting where they want to go.

In 2023, Mr. Briginshaw released "Passenger 14C". Investigative journalist Andrew McKenzie is jolted awake when his trans-Atlantic flight from Qatar makes an emergency landing in Gander, Newfoundland, where he discovers that he is one of the few people onboard who is still alive. During the subsequent investigation by the authorities, he realizes he is no longer being treated as a lucky survivor, but has become the prime suspect.

In 2024, Mr. Briginshaw released "Secrets", the sequel to "Passenger 14C". Investigative journalist Andrew McKenzie heads to the Middle East to uncover the secrets surrounding the 2022 World Cup held in Qatar. Using the information provided to him by Sarah Khan about the corruption within FIFA, he plans to confront Sarah’s husband about his role in the under-the-table deals and the disaster that happened onboard flight 059. But Andrew also has a secret, one that he shares with Sarah and RCMP Superintendent Simon Powell. And like the old saying goes, the only way three people can keep a secret is if two of them are dead.

In 2025, Mr. Briginshaw released "The Guilty", the third book in the Andrew McKenzie Trilogy. The journalist continues his search to track down Sarah Khan, one of the key people involved in the tragedy that happened onboard Flight 059. He discovers that some of the guilty parties will pay with their lives, some through the legal system, and some through other ways.

Mr. Briginshaw lives in the beautiful Shuswap area of British Columbia, Canada. ...more

"Passenger 14C" Free Until June 27th

This week I'm running a promotion, in conjunction with eReaders News Today, making the Kindle version of "Passenger 14C" FREE until June 27th.

Link: https://www.amazon.com/Passenger-14C-...

I obviously don't make any money giving away free books, but I'm hoping that people who enjoy the first book in the trilogy will purchase the other two books (Secrets and The Guilty). Read more of this blog post »
